OT: Wealth Redistribution Experiment

[gandalf]

Amazing. We’re fighting a $TRILLION WAR completely OFF BOOKS, our economy is on the verge of a MELTDOWN, America has turned into the biggest DEBTOR NATION in the history of the planet in 30 short years, our infrastructure is CRUMBLING, our political system is having a PARTISAN seizure, kids growing up with a declining standard of living, and you irresponsible GOP FUCKERS are complaining about MARGINAL CHANGES to the tax code? What the fuck is wrong with you.

It’s not socialism. WEALTHY INDIVIDUALS and LARGE CORPORATIONS with ACCESS to exclusions, shelters and loopholes PAY LESS TAX than average people. They often pay ZERO tax. The present tax system is highly REGRESSIVE and has contributed to the greatest shift in wealth redistribution UPWARDS in the history of the country.

How is that good for the economy? Our society? Our government? How is that fair? It’s a simple question for all you closet socialists on the right redistributing wealth upwards to BILLIONAIRES. Liars in the GOP really need to STFU with the socialism crap.

Oh yeah, and what’s the difference between socialism and redistributing profits from Alaskan oil revenues to the people of Alaska? Don’t hear anybody complaining about that one. Sure looks to me like Palin is a fucking SOCIALIST. You people are unbelievable. Liars to the core.

[blahblahblah]

As it relates to me, imagine if both my GF and I had school loans for both our undergrad and graduate degrees. That would easily total $300,000 to $400,000. The payment on those school loans alone would tap a significant portion of take home. Add in housing costs, insurance costs for the family, schooling etc. etc. etc. Sorry but in San Diego $250k is not a definition of rich. Yes we are successful, yes we don’t have to worry how to pay our bills.

Well that $400K on school loans was a f***ing waste of money because you don’t even understand basic arithmetic. If combined you are bringing in $250K then each of you are making LESS than $250K. As long as you file separately you won’t pay a penny more under Obama’s tax plan. And what’s more, the $250K is TAXABLE INCOME. That is after your deductions for mortgage interest, 401K contributions, etc… If you have $250K in TAXABLE INCOME you are doing allright. If you go from $250K to $300K you will pay an additional 3% (from 36% to 39%) on that $50K which works out to $1500 per year. BOO F***ING HOO.

God almighty please have mercy on us. This place is doomed.

**FAKE DEBATE ALERT**

Amazing.

What the fuck is wrong with you.

LOL, That was awesome! This is definitely one of stupidest debates I have ever seen.

Oh yeah, and what’s the difference between socialism and redistributing profits from Alaskan oil revenues to the people of Alaska? Don’t hear anybody complaining about that one. Sure looks to me like Palin is a fucking SOCIALIST. You people are unbelievable. Liars to the core

We’ve been trying to destabilize Chavez and Evo Morales in Bolivia for this. Giving natural resource money back to the people.

Something this also points out is how there is barely any difference between the two. Emotionally charged talking points that DONT mean a thing. Fake debates.

Also, Gandolf, something you might want to think about is this interview.

http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2007/12/in-a-prescient.html

Sir Robert Frost, life line British journalist interview with Benazir Bhutto. She was going over the list of people that may be the culprits of here prior assassination attempt and she mentioned the one that killed Bin laden. Huh!

Did the interviewer stop her on this NO? Did any US MSM outlets pick up on this, NO! Anybody want to venture a guess on why? I have a good explanation.

Maybe some one should show this interview to Obama with all his,”get Bin Laden rhetoric”. Come to think of it Pakistan did just descend into chaos but I’m sure his intentions are to get Bin Laden and not control of the nuclear arsenal in Pakistan.

WTF
